Kersey777, Schizoaffective disorder compounds psychosis with mood swings. Generally, it affects women more than men. Psychotic episodes generally last about 2 weeks at a time and they can occur at the same time as the mood swings or separately. Most people with schizoaffective disorder generally believe they have a problem with mood swings than anything else. Symptoms of schizoaffective disorder include: paranoia, delusions, change in energy or appetite, belief that radios and televisions are being used to monitor the individual or are sending him/her messages, disorganized speech, sleep problems, lack of concern for health and hygiene, hallucinations, irritability/anger issues, poor concentration, and mood swings. Hope this helps!
